All regular server rules apply as well as:

Spawn Camping - (This is specific to Red Engineers) Building sentries directly outside of the spawn rooms, setup area gates, in the trench (Dustbowl stage 2) as well as building sentries inside of the Blu setup area (Dustbowl stage 3) is not allowed. Building anywhere else is allowed. Offenders will have their buildings destroyed if warnings are ignored, followed by further action if needed.

2. Classwars Specific Exploits/Bugs - Using the quick respawn exploit or playing the wrong class (bug that should be resolved soon) and not switching to proper one will result in bans for repeated offenses. Wait out your respawn time and play the proper class your team is assigned.

Note: Rules can change at anytime and it is your responsibility to be aware of any changes to the above rules.If any rule is unclear to you or if you simply have a question, please ask any staff member.

*"Descriptive" is defined as genitalia (male or female). Anything above the waist is still allowed.

**Nude sprays not considered as "descriptive", or any sprays not covered in the Server Rules, are not against any rules at this time provided the content is not illegal in any US state where our servers are hosted. "Team Fortress 2" is rated Mature . If you are a parent or guardian of any minor who willingly visits our websites or servers, you are responsible for any content they may come into contact with and thus "Skiver" or its' administration will not be held liable or be required to take corrective action under any circumstance. Should there be any situation unfold not covered under this post, please contact the administrator.

No one, myself included, is a fan of numerous rules when it comes to gaming however in order to remain as legitimate and transparent as possible we must have these in place
